About Anderson MacKeigan LLP
Anderson MacKeigan LLP is a Toronto firm built around two practices: real estate, and corporate and commercial law. On the property side it works for owners, managers and developers of commercial and residential portfolios, from newer players to long-established ones, and it also offers specialized help with residential transactions of the more complex kind. Its client list mixes entrepreneurs at both the emerging and established stages with many of the GTA's residential and commercial landlords and developers.
Patrick A. Anderson and Megan MacKeigan founded the firm in 2012. Since being called to the bar, Pat has stayed involved in training and accrediting Ontario's new lawyers: Pat taught real estate seminars in the old Bar Admission Course, was asked to write real estate questions once the Law Society of Ontario moved to barrister and solicitor licensing exams in 2005, and in 2022 joined the Law Society's Solicitor Advisory Committee (Real Estate), the body that manages those mandatory exams. Megan finished a JD at Osgoode Hall Law School and an MBA at the Schulich School of Business, both at York University, in 2011.
Egin Kongoli came to the firm with a background in civil and commercial litigation, including construction and real estate disputes, and can work with clients in English, French or Arabic. Teresa Lingard, the firm's senior law clerk, brings 30 years of experience serving clients. The office is Suite 805 at 80 Richmond Street West in downtown Toronto.

Who handles what
The neighbourhood
The firm's building at 80 Richmond Street West is the Victory Building, in Toronto's financial district and linked to the PATH. Baldwin & Greene were the architects. Construction got under way in 1929 and halted at 16 floors, and the last four floors weren't finished until 1937. A later restoration of all four facades, paired with a storefront renovation, took the 2023 Heritage Planning and Architecture Award at the Heritage Toronto Awards, and the renovated lobby keeps period details like the original mailbox.
Queen and Bay is the nearest major intersection, and Queen and Osgoode are the closest subway stations. Anyone driving can use the underground parking garage under Toronto City Hall, across Queen Street from the office.
